Wen: Immortalizing Wen Culture

Immortalize wen culture with (one of) the cutest cat coins in Web3, WEN! A Solana-based memecoin, WEN claims the title of being the first community community coin based on a fractional NFT.

What is Wen?

WEN describes itself as Solana's own community mascot, wrapped up in a fractional NFT. Each token is a piece of the pie, representing a slice of "A Love Letter to Wen Bros" by the enigmatic Meow of Jupiter DEX fame.

WEN's not shy about its ambitions, marking a trio of firsts for Solana:

  • A community coin with a fractional NFT heart.
  • A debut launch on Jupiter's LFG platform.
  • The pioneer NFT minted with the WNS standard.

Spread far and wide, upon launch WEN reached over a million Solana wallets, boasting a total supply of 1 trillion tokens. This little memecoin is all about pushing digital boundaries and sharing meme-coin inspired love.
